You can do it by converting your config file to M4 and use the M4 include
command.
M4 will also let you do other nice tricks, like build a hostgroup from
an external file of IP addresses, like this (need Gnu M4 for this one):
# Customers using DSL to backup T1 circuits - IP address in column 1 of file
hostgroup dsl4t1 esyscmd(echo $(cat /etc/mon/dsl4t1.txt | awk '{print $1}'))
